Re: Ironic?

Just looked up 335 full charge shells for a BL 15", apparently most reliable of the war

The Challenger gun gets to 1500 shells... surprising, I recollect being told tank guns had only 3 or 4 rounds before the rifling was too worn but that it was ok as their life expectancy against the over whelming numbers of russian tanks was about 2 shots
